Black Celebrity Maternity Photo shoots!!!

Rih Rih and ASAP Rocky revealed that they are expecting their first child together in January. The star is currently in her third trimester and joked that she would be “psycho” as a mom when it comes to protecting her kids.

The star is expecting twin girls and shared the news last fall. She recently had a baby shower and opened up to ESSENCE in January about how her girls have motivated her. “I always said, one day when my children come, I want to be able to create generational wealth that my parents weren’t able to create for me. All the investments I have are my way of creating generational wealth for them. It’s important, especially coming from an immigrant mother,” she said. “I want to be able to show them all the great things I was able to do on my own. I want to make sure I raise two empowered and empowering women because my mom did that for me. This is going to be a very interesting journey and I can’t wait to share it with everyone — this new stage in my life.”

The “Bleeding Love” singer showed off her bump for the first time in March, sharing an in Instagram post with the caption “Can’t wait to meet you in the Summer.” This will be the first child for the Brit beauty.

Wyatt had everyone talking after revealing in February that she’s expecting her 11th child (in reality, this is her ninth biological child but she calls husband Zackariah Darring’s daughter and ex-husband Michael Ford’s daughter her own). She recently shared that the baby was diagnosed with Trisomy 13, a rare genetic disorder, but she says her family “will continue to believe the report of the Lord!”

The former Love and Hip Hop Atlanta star announced in February that she and husband Shawne Williams are expecting their second child after welcoming daughter Blessing in 2018. She broke the news on a flotation device in a pool with the caption, “The Greatest Love.” On March 11, the couple had a baby shower for their newest addition, meaning he or she will soon be arriving!

This photo of rapper Nicki Minaj turned out lovely.

NATURI NAUGHTON

Perhaps going back to our roots, Naturi Naughton displays beauty with tribal paintings on her melanin-rich skin and a little nature in her hair with butterflies.

Back in October, the author, journalist and TV personality revealed that she and husband Jonathan Singletary were expecting their first child. Despite the fact that she has dealt with COVID and a condition called symphysis pubis dysfunction, Welteroth is pushing through and in her ninth month, and she’s gained a lot of support and a sense of community from moms in her life and online. “Extra grateful for the mamas I can text at 3am and commiserate with,” she recently shared on Instagram. “We are in this thing together!!”

TEYANA TAYLOR

Showing off her baby bump beneath a sheer garment singer Teyana Taylor made this silhouette of her growing tummy a lovely image.

While in labor, Fantasia didn’t let that stop her from following through on her photo plans. In between contractions, the photographer was able to capture these absolutely gorgeous photos.

ZOE SALDANA

Beauty in flight…that’s the way I would describe actress Zoe Saldana in this shot.

The former Love and Hip Hop Miami (and Atlanta, too!) star revealed in February that she’s expecting her first child. “I’ve wanted a baby for so long and it is finally happening,” she said while sharing the cover of Kontrol Mag, where she showed off her bump. “Thank you to all of my friends and family who kept my secret and made sure this moment was everything I wanted it to be. I’m excited to be a new mom and start my new journey with my new blessing.”

TATYANA ALI

So simple, but so beautiful in Tatyana Ali in this photo. The expression on her face captures a moment in time that will be forever remembered.

Rapper Card B recently announced very dramatically that she was with child be performing on stage during an awards show. Later, she released this photo of her maternity photo shoot.

KEYSHIA COLE

Royalty was the name of the game for singer Keyshia Cole in this shot of her sitting on her golden throne.
